As I mentioned, sometimes it’s hard to keep up with all the things I’ve been wanting to blog about, so I decided that I would give my Firefox browser a break from having to keep all those tabs open and I’d just one-off everything via a link list. I know, not as good as a […]

Toluu, the new OPML sharing service that I blogged about on Read Write Web, has just added two new features folks have been asking for: RSS feeds for the activity stream and tighter integration with feed readers.
You can now subscribe to your activity stream in two different ways - either a "me only" stream or […]

I just saw this story hit Techmeme: it’s entitled "Facebook Friends Not Real Friends." They’re not? Well, at least not in the UK. Not anymore.
Apparently, the story arises from a case where a British judge cleared an ex-boyfriend of a harassment charge after he repeatedly sent his ex a "friend request." Your first […]

I was just saying how I could barely wait for the FriendFeed WordPress plugin, and, like an answer to my prayers, Glenn went ahead and released it. Now, be warned this is an early beta. It may have bugs. It might break. But, uh…I don’t care! I must have it. Downloaded it. Installed it. […]

I just saw on Mashable that I’m getting credit (or blame?) for starting the whole "The Conversation Has Left the Blogosphere" discussion regarding FriendFeed, but they note that it was also Allen Stern on CenterNetworks who helped push the discussion forward with his blog post on the topic which generated a pretty big FriendFeed […]

Over the past few days, I’ve discovered lots of new RSS stuff, thanks to all the links and info flowing by on FriendFeed.
From Louis Gray, I learned of Toluu, which aims to bring back the joy of "Share My OPML," (now defunct). Currently an invite-only beta, when the site launches, you’ll be able to […]

I can’t say that I agree with this one 100%, but it certainly is an interesting rant - over at the Industry Interactive, Inc. blog is a post titled "Facebook has failed us (or Facebook is like so Web 1.0)".
J Lane writes that Facebook is lame because the Facebook apps "suck" and it […]

Yesterday, I wrote an article on Read Write Web entitled "The Conversation Has Left the Blogosphere" about all the various ways the new lifestreaming and aggregating services have moved the conversation off of blogs and onto FriendFeeds and Twitter and the like. (Follow the conversation here on Techmeme. The post was inspired by Jason […]
